Mental health touches every one of us β yet stigma, silence, and lack of access keep too many people from getting the support they need. At ANXIOUSLOOMERS, we believe something as simple as picking up a loom and creating something with your hands can open the door to healing.
Our mission β Undo the Taboo of Mental Health β isn't just a tagline. It's a commitment to making therapeutic, community-based mental health support accessible to people of all ages across central Ohio. Your donation makes that possible.
Every dollar given to ANXIOUSLOOMERS goes directly toward building and sustaining workshops that reduce stigma and promote wellbeing. Here's how donations are put to work:
Workshop Delivery: Funding our flagship Weaving Wellness workshop β provides therapeutic loom knitting sessions at SourcePoint and partner sites across Delaware County, Ohio and beyond. This includes yarn and loom supplies, instructional materials, and facilitator time.
Community Outreach & Partnerships: Expanding into new settings β schools, community centers, businesses, and local organizations β so that therapeutic loom knitting reaches people where they are, including youth, seniors, and families.
Educational Materials: Developing science-backed resources that explain the mental health benefits of therapeutic crafting and equip participants and partners with tools to continue the work.Β
Nonprofit Infrastructure: Keeping ANXIOUSLOOMERS operationally strong β website, communications, compliance, and the administrative backbone that allows us to serve the community responsibly and sustainably.
